The 40th anniversary of the 1973 Occupation of Wounded Knee in on Wednesday, February 27th. The occupation began when 200 Oglala Activists and member of the AIM took over the town of Wounded Knee, South Dakota, and held it for 73 days.

The sacred ground where the Wounded Knee massacre took place is once again up for sale.
James A. Czywczynski and his family are selling the land for 3.9 million dollars, and the Oglala Sioux tribe are considering purchasing it. Czywcynski is giving the tribe an opportunity to purchase the land before anybody else gets a chance to buy it.
The property contains the site of the massacre but does not contain the Wounded Knee Memorial or the Sacred Heart Cemetery.

Wounded Knee Museum will be reopening summer 2017

After the fire in September 2012, The Wounded Knee Museum exhibits were reconstructed and displayed at a temporary location, but will be returning to their original location in Wall, South Dakota with an expected opening date of May 2017. We will be expanding our displays and exhibits. The Wounded Knee Museum opened in 2003 to share the events leading to the massacre at Wounded Knee in 1890.

We appreciate your continued support, understanding and prayers during this transition of rebuilding. We look forward to seeing you in 2017!
